“Wecare not siblings.”

“What is it to you if I cook him ramyeon or a meal with 18 side dishes?”

“Nobody can beat someone who’s having fun.”

As the show goes on, itbecomes clear that the girls suck at life and the boys are good atwhat they do and get praised. The girls get chewed up and spat out.

Ko Dong Man – male lead
I’m a Park Seo Jun fan. Hischaracter in this show is...loud. And kind of a country hickKorean-style.
His acting is always sonatural.

“Is this what they callsexy? I look like a 90s office worker.”

Seo Jun is actually really soamazing. I really believed he was this awkward, gangly, impatientman-child.

I love Dong Man’s softheart.
“You’re, you’re notreally crying are you?”
“Pat me. Go ahead.”

And Dong Man as a kid is justgold.

Ae Ra – female lead

Ae Ra is a bit of a nagginghousewife. She does view Dong Man as more than a friend. But I likehow she’s so fierce and scary but she also is very vulnerable andsoft-hearted and doesn’t mind admitting it.

SECONDARY CHARACTERS
I liked all the characters andthe side plots. That’s really rare for me.

Coach: “I’m more afraid ofAe Ra than any woman in the world.”

Landlady: Hey, 102, fighting!
Dong Man: What did she say?
Joo Man: I think she justcursed at you

Joo Man and Sul Hee give the drama a great feel of relationship exploration. I love it when shows think past the HEA.

“Sul Hee was like the vast ocean.”

I like the way they paint Sul Hee’s character. Of this never ending giving loving person but so annoyingly weak. She’s a typical useless kind of girl but she’sso nice and warm you feel happy in her company. I loved the dramatic part of her relationship with Joo Man and what a calm and great person she was.

PARENTS
The parents dynamic in thisshow is really good. In a way it’s nothing new but the show just does it so darn well. The main characters become like children againaround their parents but they’re striving to prove themselves. And the parents really show how well they know their children even though sometimes it looks like they’re estranged. The relationship between Sul Hee and her mother, Joo Man and his mum, Ae Ra and her dad.
Dong Man’s relationship withhis father was so typical and familiar. A dad who doesn’t know howto say what he wants to say so it just comes out as criticism andinstruction. I actually really liked this segment because it was soclose to home.

ROMANCE

“I can’t take all the burden for you but I’ll take 2 out of 3 bullets for you.”

Dong Man and Ae Ra are like siblings. They fight squabble, and cry.

“Only the microphone moron can awake the sleeping Hulk.”

I really like that Ae Ra know show Dong Man reacts to anyone messing with her. She fears for her adversaries when Dong Man shows up.

“You can’t even look after yourself yet you’re always trying to defend others.”
